Master Cleanse Diet

TheMaster Cleanse Diet, also known as the Lemonade Diet, was created by Stanley Burroughs in 1941.

The diet emphasies the non-eating of solid foods. Instead you have to drink a bizarre mixture of lemon juice, water maple syrup and cayenne pepper. You can take this mixture hot or cold.

It may seem a strange mixture but the is method in madness. It contains vitamins, minerals and sugars to help prevent the problems that can occur with the Atkins diet or other types of pure water fasting.

And why cayenne pepper? Well, with the absense of solid food, something has to help the body undergo the normal processes of getting rid of waste. You could say that it keeps things moving.

So that's the Master Cleanse Diet. Any takers?
